Highlights of N. Oregon Coast's Tillamook County This Month: Food, Music

(Manzanita, Oregon) – Music and food seems to be the order for fun on the north Oregon coast in the coming weeks, as Tillamook County boasts a number of such events in October and November. A little bit of Halloween fun is provided by a famed local pumpkin patch, and then the highlights of these weeks appear to turn towards a rousing mix of the culinary and the musical.

For the next two weekends, the north Oregon coast has quite the corn maze, and a haunted maze at the end of the month.

The Kilchis River Pumpkin Patch and Corn Maze boasts the largest corn maze on the Oregon coast. A family-owned biz, it's a 5-acre labyrinth that has a unique design with miles of trails.

It's all located just past the two-mile marker on Kilchis River Rd. and you'll find it open the last three weekends prior to Halloween, including October 21-22, and 28-29. It runs from 12 – 6 p.m. on Saturdays and 12 - 5 p.m. on Sundays. The Haunted Night Maze is on October 28 at dusk to 10 p.m.

The pumpkin patch is authentic, with thousands of u-pick pumpkins grown on the farm, including specialty bi-colored and unconventionally shaped pumpkins and gourds. They are priced according to size and include a hay ride around the farm. The pumpkin patch has multiple sets decorated and setup for family photos. The cost to go through the maze is $5. A Kid’s Maze (for the younger kids) is also available for $2. The Haunted Maze is $7.
